When despatching a Sales Order in Protean and one or more items are unavailable, you can partially despatch the Sales Order
- From a Placed Sales Order, click “Despatch”
- A Despatch Note will be created and the available quantities will be displayed in the QTY column. Any items not currently available will be populated with a quantity of 0
- If an item is in stock, and is not being despatched, change the quantity to “0” also
- NB: Parts Sales Order are invoiced through the Despatch Note so if a multiple despatches are made there will be multiple invoices generated
- Click on “Despatch” at the bottom of the screen and the Sales Order will move to a status of Incomplete
It’s a shame that raising multiple despatch notes from 1 Sales Order results in creating multiple invoices. It would be good if it would still only create 1 invoice.
Hi Lewis, many thanks for your comment.
It is possible to create a single invoice from multiple despatch notes when using the batch invoicing routine.
If you would like further details of this feature then please get in touch with our support team.
